Crossrail and House Prices
Tuesday 6th April 2010
East London Estate Agents are looking to the Crossrail Map rather that the Olympic Village to guide their clients to dream investment property. With the rail link connecting Canary Wharf to Central London and then onwards to Heathrow, property in East London along the new route will be in high demand. Ever since the Olympic bid was first announced, it has been universally observed that property prices in Hackney and the surrounding boroughs will see an Olympic bounce.
However, it is not the promise of four weeks in 2012 that will keep investors in the area; it is the lasting infrastructure and facilities. The good news is that infrastructure is not just in Stratford, it is all over East and South East London. It is new shops, sports grounds and the investment in the transport systems – such as Crossrail - that will bring new buyers to the doors of Estate Agents in East London. So, while the slower property hunters are still trying to snag deals in and around the Olympic park, the smarter investor is reading the Crossrail map and contacting East London Estate Agents about bargains in their area.
